Communication

On the Acres of Hope message board I was directed to this post to learn a little bit about Liberian English. When I say that the girls will speak English, I expect it to be similar to American English, but with a little bit of an accent. After reading this I think that understanding them during the first few weeks will be like playing a game of Mad Gab. Still, I can't wait for the challenge of figuring out what they are trying to say. At least then they will be with us and we'll have plenty of time to work out whatever communication barriers exist.
